Gambit
This article is about the chess tactic. For alternate meanings see Gambit (disambiguation). A gambit is a chess opening in which material (usually but not always a single pawn), is sacrificed in order to achieve an advantage. A gambit used as a defence to a gambit is called a countergambit (e.g., Albin Countergambit).
